[An epidemiological study of 1000 sterile couples]. / Estudio epidemiológico en mil parejas estériles.

ABSTRACT

Our purpose was to study the characteristics of our infertile population, to evaluate prognostic fertility parameters and to know our pregnancy rates. One thousand infertile couples were studied under a protocol by factors. We found the highest alteration in the ovarian factor (35%), followed by the tuboperitoneal factor (28%) and male factor (26%). The woman's age, the duration of infertility and multifactorial infertility (17.6%), were of prognostic importance. Our pregnancy rate of 61.4% compares with the reported in the literature. We believe that establishing an infertility protocol with a multidisciplinary approach, helps to a more precise diagnosis and more specific treatments with better results.
